If you want the full story I'll give it to you.

In the past month or so I have been receiving complaints from members that they felt that something needed to be done about what was being posted in the Lounge.
After the debacle that happened in the SYG thread where there were 20 pages of bickering I closed it down for a couple of days. I re-opned it and people just carried on with the bickering like nothing had happened.

I asked a question in the mod forum based on these factors if it was time to do something about this where Yac posted his reply to me which I posted earlier that it was maybe time something was done about it, then I closed the SYG thread and started this thread.

Then a few hours later Vanilla re-opned that thread under approved post conditions and asked if anyone minded it being re-opned. We then had a vote in the mod forum which is still ongoing about getting rid of that thread for good, Currently it's at 3 to 1 votes to close it for good.

That's exactly what happened, this is not me issuing a personal vendetta or me wanting to get my own way. This is about me acting as a moderator and trying to do something about things when I'm asked to. Something I believe you want me to do. You can't complain that I don't act and then when I do act on an issue complain when I do. That's just being contrary for the sake of it.

Fair enough.

But why did you post what you did in the first post?

It had to take me calling you out for you to clarify this.

This post right here should have been your first post.

All I can see is you interpret my posts a certain way which from what I can see is more on you than me. You seem to think I disregard your posts. If that were true I wouldn't respond to them in the first place.

I feel like you disregard my post because when I ask a question you do disregard them.

I sat here and have asked you at least 4 times now to discuss how you can improve this forum as a moderator but you oddly have not answered BUT you want me to answer your question though. (this is an example of you disregarding my posts and my feelings)

Like I have said many times in the past, I don't have a problem with you but for some reason you disregard my posts like they are nothing as well my opinions. I am not sure why that is when I take the time to answer your questions and really read your post and understand your perspectives ( as I would want anyone to do my own). I don't get that same respect from you. All I get is arrogance, superiority and immaturity.



I will not be patronized or dictated. My questions and opinions need to be considered as well not just YOURS.


It is a pretty simple question that you are dragging and making into a big deal by not answering it.

I wonder if it is because you are afraid to answer because it puts your flaws on display for all to see?

I can think of a few ways Urban can improve this forum as a moderator:
  • He can clean up spam so users don't have to dig through a bunch of it to get to the things they want.
  • He can enforce the rules to help make sure the site isn't shut down due to complaints from the owners or google.
  • He can approve avatars and new posts for people to make their experience here better.
  • He can take care of disruptive posters so that no one else has to.
Interestingly, these are all things I already see him doing.

So what are you doing to improve the forum?

Yes keep gracing our wonderful community with the consistently high example you set, throwing out countless profanity-filled tirades a day, targeting people and incessantly berating them for things they've already apologized for, and triple posting to spice up important threads in the "Announcements, Suggestions, & Feedback" forum to keep things looking neat and tidy.

Honestly, leave Roxy alone.

BTW are you someone important on MusicBanter? Like seriously I don't know. It seems you like to come in here riding on your high horse and lecture people.

Can you explain why that would matter? Do you really think she never steps out of line? If you say no you're lying to yourself.

When someone is consistently hypocritical to an obnoxious level I'm going to call them out. That's who I am, that's what I do. If you're not like that then that's fine, but my post still had a point whether you agree with how I delivered it or not.

since the only people to comment on this beef so far have done so in roxy's favor i just wanna say that this post is pure ether. you might wanna dial back the consistency of your roxy attacks though because it starts to look like hating after a while. but at least you don't just kiss her ass like the majority of these e-eunuchs

i really don't see how this thread is any different from the last beef thread. but feel free to carry on, people. cause i find it very entertaining

Don't understand the reference. What are you trying to say, that it put you to sleep??
